CUPERTINO, Calif. - Feb. 23, 2007 - Alliacense today named Roy J. Maharaj Vice President, Licensing, reporting to Mike Davis, Senior Vice President, Licensing. With more than 15 years' experience managing business development, technology licensing and sales, Maharaj comes to Alliacense from Mistletoe Technologies where he served as VP of Business Development and Sales over the past two years.
"Roy's cross-functional management experience within both large enterprise and startup environments has direct application to the expanding range of licensing programs that we are developing and directing for The TPL Group," said Davis. "We look forward to his contributions, especially as we continue winning notable licensees worldwide for the Moore Microprocessor Patent‚Ñ¢(MMP) Portfolio."
MMP Portfolio patents encompass fundamental design techniques that enable higher performance and lower cost digital electronic systems ranging from cell phones and portable music players to communications infrastructure and medical equipment as well as automobiles, which today utilize dozens of microprocessors.
Maharaj began accumulating extensive technology licensing experience with IBM Corporation where he served as Manager of Technology Licensing and Business Development from 1995 to 2000. He subsequently managed key business development and licensing programs for Cylink and Securalink, both later acquired by SafeNet Inc., where he then served as Vice President of Global Business Development and Sales from 2002-2005. At SafeNet, he was instrumental in completing IP licensing agreements with several major companies including AMD, Cisco, AMCC, Samsung and Texas Instruments, while tripling Silicon IP design wins and revenue year to year. Maharaj earned his Juris Doctor degree from the School of Law at Santa Clara University where he earlier received his Bachelor of Business Administration. He also holds an MBA from San Jose State University
Intellectual Ventures appears to purchase companies patents. This guy looks like he left Alliacense to join Intellectual Ventures. Are they interested in the MMP? Think our BOD could let us know
